Question

If I become a Muslim, are my personal vows made as a Christian still binding?

Answer

It will be preferable if it is a permissible thing that the vow was made for.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
